"But why not, Matilda? After all, aside from taxes,
gasoline costs about the same now as in 19251"
It takes a far smaller share of your income to keep
your car in gasoline today. Oil men have been beating
increased costs with technical efficiencies that hold
prices down and yield better gas: two gallons now
do work that used to take three. That's progress.

Did you know that during
the' past ten years, hunters
have "bagged" 6240 humans
and wounded 7200 more?
Anyone who owns a gun of
any kind is certainly a dan
gerous optimist if he does
not recognize the hazzards
he faces. Firearms can kiii
and maim other hunters as
well as wild game.
Hunting is an enjoyable,
vigorous sport. But acci
dents may happen. What is
the solution?
First, exercise proper cau
tion. Second, protect your
self, from a legal liability
standpoint, with a compre
hensive Personal Liability
policy. Then in the event
you are responsible for a
hunting accident, or mis
takenly shoot a cow, or
damage property in other
ways, the insurance com
pany will take over.
The policy Is broad. It
covers liability from many
other things than mere par
ticipation in sports al
though that is especially
Important at this season!
And it protects alj members
of your faimly.
The cost is very low
starting at $5.00 per year.
Can you really afford to
be without it?
